The Killing Dance (Anita Blake Vampire Hunter Series #6)

by Laurell K. Hamilton

Overview

In the sixth adventure in the #1 New York Times bestselling series, Anita Blake’s unique skills make her a wanted woman—by vampire, by werewolf, and by a hit man...
 
Though she’s dating a vampire and a werewolf, Anita is keeping them at arm’s length. Which isn’t easy considering that Jean-Claude is the master vampire of St. Louis and Richard Zeeman is the sexiest junior high school teacher she’s ever seen.
 
Just to complicate Anita’s already messy life, someone has put a price on her head. Love cannot save her this time, so she turns to Edward, hit man extraordinaire for help. But finding the person behind it won’t be easy, because she’s made a lot of enemies—human and otherwise.

From the Publisher

Anita Blake's idea of a stakeout usually involves something twitching messily on the business end of a sharp stick, and she handles that with marvelous aplomb. Unfortunately that doesn't help her handle this book's biggest crisis: her love life. Blake fans must not miss this novel. I've become a big fan of this gun-toting, smart-talking vampire killer, and I'm not a fan of the vampire sub-genre. Terrific fun.

Romantic thrills...Erotic chills...A real rush!

Anita Blake is one conflicted woman! She's a vampire-killer who is in love with a vampire—and a werewolf. At the same time. When the three of them get together, Blake's power grows exponentially. It’s a good thing, too, because she’s got a $500,000-dollar bounty on her head. With panache, Kimberly Alexis takes the listener on Blake’s latest adventure. She has no trouble invoking the voices of men, as well as male vampires and werewolves, even French vampires with heavy accents. She excels as Anita herself, giving voice to the many contradictions that make up her character. M.S. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
